An automatic email marketing responder
software, will do everything an automatic responder service will do,
but without paying a monthly fee.

I started out using an automatic responder service and paying for it monthly, until that is, I discovered the advantages of having my own automatic email marketing responder.

If you're currently looking for an automatic responder for your website, or to replace an existing one, then taking a few minutes to read this could save you from the mistakes that cost me a great deal of time, money and effort.

As I'm sure you're aware, these days, if you're running a business on the web, you need to build an opt-in subscriber list, publish a newsletter or ezine and be able to easily and reliably email your subscribers.

That's why I was looking for an automatic responder
But finding a good one was a lot harder than I'd ever expected

So what's an automatic responder ?

Put simply an automatic responder or autoresponder, enables you to automatically collect, process, store and manage names and email addresses of people interested in your information, products or services. It enables you to send one or thousands of emails with customized messages, on dates you define or at intervals you specify.

Hi, I'm Tony Simpson,

I'd like to tell you about my search for an auto responder and how my experience could help you with a similar decision. Like many other web owners looking for an automatic responder for the first time, I didn't know quite what to choose for the best.

After all, I'd never run an automatic responder before.

But I knew the automatic responder offered with most web hosting accounts just wasn't going to do what I needed. OK, if I just wanted to set up an automatic responder message to tell people I was away on vacation, it's great, but beyond that, nope it just wouldn't do.

So I decided to do some research on the Internet, pretty much like what you may be doing right now. I checked out a number of automatic responder services charging a fee of $20 to $40 per month and found some automatic email marketing responder software on trial download. I also found some free automatic responder scripts I could try.

After a month of trying different trial downloads and free automatic responder scripts, I still hadn't managed to find one that would do what I wanted.

Now don't get me wrong, I wasn't being choosy, but I knew at the very least, I wanted an automatic responder that worked, was easy to set up and maintain, would allow me to configure a double opt-in sign-up and was reliable.

You may have come across products like "Autoresponder Unlimited" that seems to be available all over the web from $14.95 to $49.95. Oh! and that normally includes resell rights. Well I have to admit I tried it, but it simply did not work for me.

I also tried "MailLoop" and whilst a good product, it has one major disadvantage, it runs on your PC and not on a server. That's not a problem if you don't mind having your PC running 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

After months of research and trying different automatic responder
trial downloads and free scripts this is what I found.

They either had too many bugs, poor documentation, poor or no support,
were difficult to install / set-up or just didn't work as described, or as I wanted.

Now, I'm no dummy when it comes to software and scripts, but trying to figure out some of the ones I found, had me beat.

It was then that I turned to Aweber, one of the leading automatic responder services I had seen used by so many other websites and frequently being recommended. Whilst it didn't take long to setup the basics, for the first few weeks I spent time learning how to do what I really wanted.

Whilst Aweber was a good service and I had no complaints, somehow it just didn't offer me what I wanted and that's more flexibility and control.

After about 6 months of using two different automatic responder services I can only say I was finally saved from despair when I found the automatic email marketing responder software that I knew must exist, but just hadn't found.

The automatic email responder software I discovered I now use on all my own sites where I need an automatic responder. It has become the answer for all my automatic email marketing responder needs.

In fact the very same automatic responder is used on this page, but you'll not see it in action unless you decide to download it and try it for yourself. The messages you will get should you decide to use the automatic responder are processed by this autoresponder.

For the technically minded, the automatic responder I discovered, is a PHP script, or for the less technical, software that's installed on your web site.

"This automatic responder automatically takes care of all my email marketing, autoresponders, mailing lists, ezines, newsletters, follow-ups, sign-ups, opt-ins or opt-outs."

This automatic responder also lets you control unlimited emailing lists and gives you the power to easily and conveniently publish to one person, to a few hundred people, or hundreds of thousands of people, while remaining timely, personal and professional.

One aspect key to my decision to adopt this automatic responder was the first rate support I and other users have experienced since using it. Problems are normally resolved within a day and support is always at hand, through the Online Forum, particularly for new users.

One of the things that sets this automatic responder heads above the rest
is the support the developer gives to it.

When you have bought as many products as I have, you come to appreciate how support for the product can very often be the single most important consideration.

"This automatic responder has free lifetime support and as if that's not enough, it has lifetime upgrades at no extra charge."

If you're not sure what you should be looking for when choosing
automatic email marketing responder software, here's my list of must have's.

1. It must be easy to install.
2. It must be easy to configure.
3. It must be easy to manage and maintain.
4. It must have good online support.
5. It must have comprehensive, clear and easy to understand documentation.
6. It must be flexible enough to grow with the needs of the business.
7. It must be reliable and stable in its operation.
8. It must be able to run multiple and separate double opt-in subscriber lists.
9. It must have a good range of customizable features that I can tailor to my needs.
10. It must be affordable when compared to other solutions.

When I compared this automatic responder to my list
of must have's, this is what I found:

1. Is this automatic responder easy to install ?
   Whilst I'm no novice when it comes to installing software and scripts that run on a web hosting account I still find it a good policy not to assume things, but to follow the instructions step by step.
   
   This automatic responder's instructions are clear and cover a wide range of different types of web hosting accounts you are likely to experience. I had more issues with different web hosts than I did with this automatic responder.

2. Is the automatic responder easy to configure ?
   If you've never setup an automatic responder before things can take a little getting use to. If you're the sort of person who wants to rush ahead without following the instructions you could find yourself running into problems. These are problems you may not have had if you take your time and do things step by step. Whilst this automatic responder does as much of the configuring for you as it can, even filling in fields with suggested settings, you still need to set up some things on your web hosting account.
   
   This automatic responder is easy to configure if you take your time and follow the very good step by step instructions.

3. Is this automatic responder easy to Manage and Maintain ?
   The short answer is Yes. Once you've set up your first subscriber list, setting up as many other separate lists as you want is quite easy. If you have an existing mailing list this automatic responder has a feature to allow you to import it directly. It will even try to figure out what fields in your old mailing list fit the new list. Setting up new email messages and follow up messages is also straightforward.
   
   As for maintaining this automatic responder, apart from taking regular backups just in case there's a problem with your web host, there's no other maintenance.

4. Does the automatic responder have good online support ?
   I have probably answered this question already if you read what I said earlier. The answer is a double Yes. Because the support is provided directly by the software developer himself, he knows what he's talking about. You are not dealing with a well intentioned guy at a support desk.
   
   Support comes directly from the software engineer who wrote and continues to develop this automatic responder.

5. Does the automatic responder have easy to understand documentation ?
   Once again I have touched on this already and the answer is a clear Yes. This automatic responder has probably the most comprehensive, clearly written instructions and support documentation I have ever seen from any similar product. The only criticism I could make is the documentation is not easily available as a printable download. The automatic responder's documentation is online so to get a hard copy you need to save each page and then print it.
   
   Personally I find it easier to follow instructions from the printed page than online, but that's just my preference.

6. Is this automatic responder flexible enough to grow with my business ?
   No one wants to invest in a product and then in 6 -12 months time find they need another one because the business has outgrown it. This automatic responder can run an unlimited number of different automatic responder lists, with fully featured future scheduling and of a size only limited by your web hosting account.
   
   In addition the automatic responder continues to be updated with new features and recently had the release of a new version. The added bonus is these upgrades are free to existing users.

7. Is the automatic responder Stable and Reliable ?
   Anyone involved with software development will know that sometimes upgrades can cause problems. What's different with this automatic responder is that because it's directly supported by the guy who wrote it, any reported problems get swift and immediate attention.
   
   Not only that, but the developer takes great pains to ensure upgrades are thoroughly tested before they are released.

8. Can this automatic responder run multiple automatic responders ?
   Yes, this automatic responder can run an unlimited number of automatic responders, with separate lists and with single or double opt-in sign-up. The automatic responder can also be configured to be fully Can SPAM Act compliant with a built in fully automatic unsubscribe feature.
   
   No more messing about manually removing subscribers.

9. Does this automatic responder have good customizable features ?
   The best answer to this question is for you to try it and judge for yourself. Email messages can be customized with up to 10 extra custom fields as well as the standard ones that come pre-built. This means you can insert almost anything you want into an email to personalize it how you want. The automatic responder also has a built in tracking feature that allows you to setup tracking links. This means you can insert links into a message to subscribers and the automatic responder will record and report on which subscribers click on which links.
   
   This feature is a real bonus if you want to track levels of interest to your offers.
   And let's face it who doesn't !

10. Is this automatic responder affordable ?
    Because I was replacing an existing automatic responder service that was costing me $19.95 per month, I took the view any replacement automatic email marketing responder software would have to pay for itself in less than 12 months. That meant it should cost less than $240.
    
    So Yes, this automatic responder is affordable.

But this automatic responder goes well beyond my basic list
of must have's, to include:

Sending you an email every time a new subscriber signs-up including       the referral URL and IP address to counter any SPAM allegations.

Sending you an email when a subscriber opts-out from your list.

Sending plain text emails or HTML emails or a mixture of both. Using HTML
      your emails look like a web page and can make your messages stand out.

Automatically deletes users that create undeliverable messages, based on
      the number of times bounced or within a number of days you define. This
      saves you from cleaning lists manually to remove aged email addresses.

Create sophisticated email follow-ups with messages queued for sending
      automatically in a few days, weeks, months or even years in advance.

Send out an exactly timed sequence of messages. So, if you have a series
      of articles or a course you want to send to your mailing list you can set up
       and forget about it. This automatic responder will handle it all for you.

Full backup and restore to protect you from a web host server crash.
      This could save you from losing your mailing list database or all your
      carefully crafted follow up messages.

Free lifetime upgrades and updates which are easy to install and do not
      affect your existing data, set up or configuration.

Add subscribers manually, from a CSV file or existing MySQL database.

"If you're looking to use an automatic responder on your website, or looking to change from an existing monthly fee paying service, I highly recommend you to try this automatic responder for yourself."

You've nothing to lose with a money back guarantee and everything to gain from the 100's of dollars you'll save by not paying monthly fees and by the benefits, flexibility and total control you'll enjoy with this automatic responder.

By now you're probably thinking ..

"This is just what I want, but I'm not sure I could set it up and get it running."

Well if that's what's stopping you from taking the next step and trying this automatic responder you need have no more fear for even more help is at hand.

"This automatic responder comes with the best documentation and online support I have ever experienced for such a product."

If you have any problem, help is only an email away. Responses are quick and as an owner you also get access to the online forum. Here you can check to see if your problem or question has already been answered and if not submit your own.

If you still don't feel confident enough to install and setup this automatic responder for yourself, the developer, for a small fee, will install it for you.

So, now you know that this automatic responder is the best automatic email marketing responder software. I use it on my own sites and it comes with my personal recommendation. The only thing I haven't told you yet is the price.

Up until very recently you could have bought
this automatic responder for just $100.

That is in fact the price I originally paid for it. However you can't get it for that price now,
today the price is $195. If that sounds like a big price hike you have me and many other users to blame.

You see before I found this automatic responder I had been searching
for months and never found anything that came close to
what I wanted at a price I could afford.

How Other Automatic Responder Prices Compared

MailLoop Automatic Responder $379 to $697
VarPro Automatic Responder $449.95
Aptimass Automatic Responder $277.97
Dynamic Mail Communicator $329.95
List Sorcerer Automatic Responder $399

In fact the average Automatic Responder cost was $399.
Support and upgrade cover was limited
in all cases to one year or less"

Call me stupid, perhaps I should have kept quiet and not told the developer that I thought he was undercharging for this automatic responder. Of course I wasn't the only user to have told him that.

Let's be fair this automatic responder is a great product and we all want the developer to be able to afford to continue to develop and support it the way he does.

Having seen what this automatic responder can do I would still be happy
to pay $195 for it and I'm sure if you'd tried it, so would you.

I know you may see an automatic responder as a big investment, but if you want to have an automatic responder facility running on your website you only have two real choices. One is to rent one by paying a monthly fee to an automatic responder service provider, or two, to invest in your own automatic responder.

Of course there's a third choice and that's to hunt around until you find a free auto responder script. But as I've already said you take the risk of not being able to get it working as you want, having limited or no support and limited documentation. That's certainly been my experience with free automatic responder scripts.

Would you rather rent ?

If you rent an auto responder service, you're likely to be paying around *$19.95 per month for a reliable quality service (*based on the price from Aweber.com). In 12 months you will have paid out $239.40 in rental fees, unless you want to sign up for a 12 month contract and get a discount. But do you want to be tied to a service provider for 12 months, what if you don't like the service ?

If you invest in your own auto responder, you pay *$195 for it once, have no recurring fees and nothing more to pay ever (*based on the price of this automatic responder). This means your own auto responder will earn its keep in under 10 months compared to renting.

Two years after renting an auto responder you could spend $360
(assuming a contract discount and no monthly price increase)

Two years after owning your own auto responder you have saved $190

That's $15 per month to rent
OR
$7.08 per month to own.

A Saving of $7.92 every month.

Ah! you may say, but if I rent I don't have to worry about the service becoming outdated and I get new features added when the service provider adds them. But you get exactly the same with this automatic responder.

It comes with lifetime updates and upgrades for free.

But don't take my word for it
